Chill out with Rita this spring! Every year, spring brings warm sunlight, cool breezes and this sweet and popular freebie from Rita’s. The shop is celebrating the first day of spring by giving customers a complimentary Italian Ice.
They’ve been hosting the giveaway for more than 30 years now. And, for many bargain hunters, it’s become an annual tradition in kicking off the start of the sunny season with a cool treat from Rita’s in hand.
